The Congress brought together a large number of leading experts, scientists, doctors, lecturers, researchers, and representatives from units operating in the fields of testing, biotechnology, genetics, precision medicine, and healthcare. The event not only marked the establishment of a new professional organization but also opened up opportunities to promote cooperation, knowledge sharing, and the development of genomic medicine applications to serve the community.

A Significant Milestone in the Development of Genomic Medicine in Vietnam
In recent years, genomic medicine has become one of the fastest-growing fields of modern medicine. Remarkable advances in gene sequencing technology and biological data analysis have paved the way for the more accurate application of genetic information in the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of diseases.
Given this strong development trend, the establishment of the Ho Chi Minh City Genomic Medicine Association is considered a necessary step to connect experts, scientists, and organizations working in this field. The Association will act as a bridge between research institutions, hospitals, universities, and businesses, contributing to promoting scientific research, training high-quality human resources, and applying the achievements of genomic medicine to medical practice.

The establishment of the Association also demonstrates the determination to build a strong professional community, aiming to improve the quality of healthcare and bring precision medicine solutions closer to the Vietnamese people.
The Congress included many important contents.
The Congress program was organized into two main working sessions.
In the first session, delegates held the founding congress of the Association with many important contents such as approving the operating regulations, reporting on the development direction in the first term, discussing strategic goals and operational orientations of the Association in the period 2026 - 2031.
The Congress also elected the first Executive Committee in accordance with regulations. The election results selected individuals with high professional competence and rich experience in the fields of genetics, biotechnology, precision medicine and healthcare management to participate in leading the Association in the new term.
The inauguration ceremony of the Executive Board for the 2026-2031 term took place in a solemn atmosphere, marking the beginning of the journey to build and develop the Ho Chi Minh City Genomics Medical Association into a reputable professional organization that makes practical contributions to the development of the healthcare sector.
The second session of the program was a series of scientific reports with many in-depth topics on the current status, potential, and development direction of genomics medicine in Ho Chi Minh City. The reports provided a comprehensive view of outstanding achievements, current challenges, and opportunities for applying genetic technologies in disease diagnosis and treatment.
Through the discussion sessions, many valuable professional opinions were shared, contributing to a clearer understanding of the role of genomics medicine in the modern healthcare system.
A space for networking and sharing professional knowledge
One of the highlights of the Congress was the participation of many units operating in the fields of testing, biotechnology, and medical genetics. The event created a vibrant academic exchange environment, where experts and businesses had the opportunity to share experiences, update on new technological trends, and seek future collaboration opportunities.
Besides the academic content, the exhibition area of the Congress also received great attention from the delegates. This was where advanced technological solutions, products, and services serving research, diagnosis, and healthcare based on genomic medicine were showcased.
The networking activities at the Congress contributed to promoting the link between scientific research and practical application, creating momentum for the sustainable development of the industry in the future.
Eurofins GENTIS accompanies the Congress
As a company operating in the field of genetic testing and genomic medicine, Eurofins GENTIS is honored to accompany the First Congress of the Ho Chi Minh City Genomic Medicine Association.

At the event, Eurofins GENTIS introduced to experts and delegates its comprehensive testing ecosystem, meeting the needs in many different fields such as assisted reproduction, obstetrics and gynecology, andrology, medical genetics, paternity testing (Family Test), and many other advanced testing solutions.
Through its exhibition booth, the Eurofins GENTIS team of experts had the opportunity to directly exchange information with doctors, researchers, and partners about new trends in genetic testing, as well as the role of genetic testing specialists.
